Didn't American troops stage from the UK for WWI? At least partially, AFAIK. NATO was after WWII - 1949.
Yes but I’m pretty sure they all left afterwards, after WW1 the USA became isolationist and Churchill had to got to a lot of trouble to coax the US into aiding Britain fight the Nazi’s, only the fact the Nazi U boats were targeting US merchant ships off the American coast and after Japans attack on Peal Harbour , the Nazi’s declared war on the US. The Yanks had bases all over Western Europe after WW2, If not I’d be calling you Comrade Dywyddyr now.
Pfft. Even if ALL of them left (I'm dubious, simply because people are people and some like to start afresh) they left, um, reminders... 9 months later... Pfft again. The Russkies were as scared about US invading THEM as we were of them rolling West. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!

Point sort of taken. I mean, just look at that poster. Typical American hysterical over-reaction. Soviet invasion of Britain? "Don't be bloody silly Comrade, it's tea and crumpets at FOUR o'clock regardless of what your commissar says".
These Propaganda posters are insane! You know they still making them now. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
